One of the million reasons to hate AI is that it's all finished product with that shit. You don't get the beauty of the unfinished WIP. I commissioned @hiss-graphics.bsky.social for a group shot (to be shared later) and I'm already in love with the unfinished product!

Good morning! Did you know that I’m running a Kickstarter to fund the printing of my first Dwarves of Kadaz story? Because now you do! And it’s 61% funded after only one day!

Pledge for some sweet rewards and/or spread the word!

Dwarves of Kadaz: REVOLUTION
The spark of revolution against a xenophobic dwarf patriarchy is lit by the only woman born outside its walls.

Discussing worldbuilding with my wife❤️:
Her: There has to be an ego from both sides. Witches know they have what it takes to be wizards, and wizards boast how they didn't need to be a witch.

Me: There's an Army v Navy thing with them. Competitive with mutual respect.

And Sorcerers are Air Force.

Been reading the latest Dresden Files book this weekend.

Man.

Butcher is a master of the craft. I don't want this book to ever end. It took a while to come out, and it's worth every second of that wait.

A massive bout of insomnia this weekend led to me finishing the rough draft of my second book! The wonders of not sleeping, baby!

To everyone in the path of this coming winter storm, stay safe.

If you lose power and need heat, you can make a decent space heater out of 3 cans (coffee tins work best) stacked like this. Top can is top-down and lidless. Place a candle in the middle and you'll get some good heat.

FINALLY had a chance to team up with my friends in Wilds today and we took Gogmazios DOWN! Massive thanks to @monsterhunter.capcomusa.com for their work on this fight. Engaging and exciting from start to finish with some of the best hunt mechanics I've ever enjoyed! #mhwilds

HAHA WOW
Love these results. Go vote, tell them!

Oh I can finally answer one of these without it being a spoiler!

Ruby doesn't know her family
Tychus' family is dead
Brillante's family might be actually incapable of hate, they'd support their kid to the ends of the world
And Ekaf's family does not support his choices. He ran away from that!
#CoupleQuestion💗 How do your OCs' families think about their relationship? Do they accept it?

I can't keep waking up to new atrocities EVERY FUCKING DAY. I am losing my mind and my patience with this shithole of a country.

During these times, it's easy for us to feel scared, isolated, and helpless. But we must not let that stop us. We're not alone.

Writing is a frustrating medium of art. There's so much I want to pack into scenes that gets left on the cutting room floor*. A writer has to respect the sanctity of every word and make scenes as efficient as possible.

Be loud. Be angry. Tell them how this makes you feel. Tell them what AI has already done to hurt you and your loved ones.

FUCK. AI.

Here are my goals for 2026:

Publish Goulinn V1, or at least secure a new publishing deal
Finish a full draft of V2 (the rough is nearly done!)
Weight loss: get down to and stay below 215 lbs
Learn Python
Learn some visual art medium (drawing? Blender?)

Have a happy New Year!

There's a common rhetoric going around about New Years Resolutions being pointless or unattainable and that we shouldn't even bother setting them.

Bullshit.

I encourage you, yes you, reading this on the toilet, to set goals for the next year. There's something you want. Reach out and grab it.

I have found a new reason to hate Minecraft.

It is darn near IMPOSSIBLE to research real world mine rail systems online! Every result is a Minecraft tutorial. Yes, even after filtering out the word Minecraft!
